Famous quotes containing the words troubled, water and/or performed:

    “Who said, ‘All Time’s delight
    Hath she for narrow bed;
    Life’s troubled bubble broken’?—
    That’s what I said.”
    —Walter De La Mare (1873–1956)

    “The land may vary more;
    But wherever the truth may be—
    The water comes ashore,
    And the people look at the sea.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “All in all, the creative act is not performed by the artist alone; the spectator brings the work in contact with the external world by deciphering and interpreting its inner qualifications and thus adds his contribution to the creative act. This becomes even more obvious when posterity gives its final verdict and sometimes rehabilitates forgotten artists.”
    —Marcel Duchamp (1887–1968)
